Dreams

Dreams by Jerome K. Jerome ushers listeners into a witty, ever-surprising world where absurdity and gentle satire illuminate the quirks of everyday life. A master of late-Victorian humor, Jerome collects short, conversational essays that read like a rambling night’s reverie—full of whimsical scenarios, rueful observations, and sly social commentary. These essay/short nonfiction pieces explore the logic of dreams, the odd rules people accept, and the comic gaps between appearance and reality. Jerome’s voice is casual and urbane, turning small incidents—a theater cloakroom that asks you to leave your legs outside, a casually imagined hanging—into portals for broader reflections on manners, human vanity, and the comforting unimportance of many anxieties. The tone alternates between light-hearted absurdism and quietly sharp insight, making each vignette feel both timeless and rooted in its historical moment. Ideal for listeners who enjoy classic literature, comic essays, or spoken-word storytelling with a droll narrator’s touch, Dreams is perfect for commutes, late-night listening, or anyone who appreciates clever, readable meditations on the human mind.
